PEE FACE. 



In speaking of this, the first portion of the 0. Fairfax Murray 
Library, as a Collection of German Books, it is necessary to point 
out that the term is used in a wide general sense, so as to include 
the Presses of Holland, Belgium and Switzerland, all of which 
produced a style of typography and illustration different from 
those of the Latin countries. The period included embraces the 
years 1465 to 1680, the first date being approximately the date 
of the Block-Books, and. the last that of the book containing 
Eembrandt's etching to Jan Six's Medea. The majority of the 
books are of the 15th and 16th Centuries, but a few of the 17th 
were included by Mr. Fairfax Murray on account of their Diirer 
interest. The whole forms a representative collection of books 
with woodcuts of remarkable importance and completeness, com- 
mencing with the earliest xylographs, i.e. the Apocalypsis, Ars 
Memorandi, Ars Moriendi, Biblia Pauperum, and Speculum 
Humanae Salvabionis. While few of the books were collected 
as examples of type-printing only, the famous early German 
presses at Augsburg, Basle, Coin, Frankfurt, Lubeck, Mainz, 
Niirnberg, Strassburg, and 13 Im are all well represented, besides 
those of Antwerp, Gouda, Louvain, Bamberg, Briinn, Leipzig, 
Eougemont, Schiedam, Speier, Zwolle, etc. The Collection con- 
tains many fine and important books from the Ashburnham, 
Marquis d'Adda, William Morris, Huth, Pembroke, and other 
recently dispersed Libraries. As, with a few trifling exceptions, 
all the books are rare, it has not been thought necessary to 
repeat the usual terms of praise. 

The present Catalogue is based on Mr. C. Fairfax Murray's 
own privately printed Catalogue, 2 volumes, royal 4to, 1913, in 
which very elaborate and detailed descriptions of the various 
items will be found. 

An index of Presses and Printers will be found at the end 
of the Catalogue.

Only 5 copies feinted on vellum are said to be in

embracing is dated 1504). The series was completed in 

1510 when Diirer added the frontispiece, and the Death 
and Assumption of the Virgin 

The frontispiece in this set is a proof, and inserted 
(loose) is the same cut from the 1511 edition, with 
woodcut title. Added at the end is a brilliant impression 
of the single woodcut of the Adoration of the Magi, dated 

1511 [Bartsch 3). An early owner has stencilled two or
